Trump Taps Kash Patel to Dismantle the FBI’s Establishment | Firstpost America

Kash Patel, US President-elect Donald Trump’s controversial pick for the FBI director, is a fiercely loyal ally with a history of criticising the agency. Known for his bold rhetoric, Patel has vowed to dismantle the FBI's "deep state" influence and overhaul its operations. His nomination comes with strong opposition, as critics question his qualifications and fear his political loyalties could undermine the agency's independence. With FBI Director Christopher Wray still serving a few years of his term, Patel’s confirmation would be a monumental shift. Will this loyalist's vision reshape the FBI, or ignite a new wave of division in Washington? The stakes are high.
